Mozart, the boy Composer

　　One day in 1761, a little boy sat at a harpsichord (an instrument like a piano) and played music. The people who were listening to him couldn't believe their ears! Even though he was only five years old, he could play better than most grown-ups. This boy was Wolfgang Mozart, and he grew up to be a great composer.

　　Wolfgang was born in Austria and grew up in a house where he heard music all the time. His father was a musician, and he gave Wolfgang music lessons almost as soon as the little boy could talk. Wolfgang learned to play the harpsichord when he was just three years old. Then, one day, when he was six, he picked up a violin. Even though he had never had a lesson, he began to play the violin perfectly. Wolfgang's father saw how talented his son was. So he decided to take Wolfgang on a long trip where many people could hear his boy play.

　　The Mozart traveled over all the countries of Europe. Wolfgang played for kings, queens, and other important people. Other musicians couldn't believe a six-year-old boy could play the harpsichord so well. So they gave Wolfgang very hard music to play. He had never seen the music before, but he played it just right.

　　Wolfgang also became a composer when he was a child. He wrote his first music when he was just five years old. By the time he was ten, he had written five long pieces of music called sym phonies. When Wolfgang grew up, he spent most of his time composing music. Today, people everywhere still love the music made by the amazing boy who grew up to be a great musician.
